NBA Live 06 - The Game That Killed NBA Live
It's hard to imagine looking back, but there was a time where NBA Live was the golden standard of basketball video games. Then when 2K entered the scene, the landscape was incredibly competitive between Visual Concepts and EA. This all changed when EA released one of it's most disappointing titles (Live 2006) on the xbox 360, and 2K seized the opportunity and never looked back.

The only good Live game for the Xbox 360 I heard was Nba Live 10, since apparently it was directed by the same guy that did Nba 2k. What happen to him? Went back to 2k since he didn't like EA's ideology (like most people do nowadays).

Live was still good on PS2, and NBA Live 09 and 10 were pretty good Problem is that 2k was improving so fast. As soon as 2k out MJ in the game for 2k11, while EA didn't even release a game, it was officially over. Then, 2k12 added in more legends and updated the Shot Stick with more moves

Once NBA Live went to the Xbox 360/PS3 generation, that was where the developers really lost their way. I still have my NBA Live 06 for PC to this day. For me, NBA Live 2005 on PS2 and NBA Live 06 on PC were the last two great games in the franchise.

They started getting better, but 2k caught them, passed them, then buried them with 2k11
Live 06 was played like live 99 and had really good graphics
It was at least the beginning of the end.
EA didnt even bother to fix issues in Live 07 that were present in 06 but Live 08 was a step in the right direction which i did enjoy
Crazy thing is, this game was actually incredible on the previous gen
99, 03 and 06 was the 3 lives I played
This game is completely different from Xbox to PS2
Loved the Original Xbox version but when I got it for the 360 it just felt horrible and I was hyped to play it because of the graphics
You Forgot to mention that the 2K series NBA/NFL 1st came to Sony &Xbox the games were $19.99 each instead of the $49.99 each for Live and Madden . So getting both Nba&NFL2k for cheaper than cost of an EA sports was a win
nba live 07 is what killed nba live franchise not 2006
‘03 and ‘05 were the BEST NBA LIVE GAMES. 2000 was iconic as well ‼️
Visual concepts made nba action games prior to their 2k name change.
NBA 06 went hard 04 too and 08 with Gilbert arenas on the cover was the last good one
This game was crap because it was bare bones in features. No Dynasty mode, no dunk contest, 3 point contest or one on one. Also the animations looked worse because it didn't match the graphics. That said if I was forced to play Live 06 on 360 or Live 14, I'm playing 06.
Live 06 was good on the older platforms
This one of the best
I have this game and I had fun playing it
The skinny ghostlike player animations lol
This game definitely did not kill NBA LIVE.
It wasn’t Live 07’ ??
Shit, this is well done.
Amazing graphics
Nowadays people expect too much from any video game they want a game to Almost be realistic I don't care about that as long as EA Sports and NBA 2k make video games that's all good I say stop complaining and enjoy the video games like I say at least they are making them for us to enjoy imagine if they stop making NBA games just cause some people complain about it chill people chill just enjoy I'm grateful for this companies EA Sports & NBA 2k for making this videos games that I enjoy playing 😎
If you never played live 06 at the time, how can you make your claims. 06 was great
This game was lit but glitch asf . All you had to do was drive n kick worked every time big man would always help lol
this game was the best LIVE ever made...F you mean? This game was best on ps2 but rushed on to NEW GEN
Same from Nba2k13 as well. The gameplay in NBA2K13 Was horrible. The graphics in NBA2K13 Was Amazing but the players was Horrifying!!
This is actually live ‘07. Wrong title
NBA Live 06 on PC is the GOAT. I think I played that up to like 2011 or 2012 or something.
The title is off. Live 06 was the last good Live.
The worst nba live by far is 07 for ps2/ og Xbox. 06 for ps2/og Xbox was good. Once 07 came out it was like they tried to do to much and didn’t even finish the game before shipping. It’s the most broken nba game I have ever played hands down.
In my own personal opinion, NBA Live had been on the decline for quite some time. The last good NBA Live to me was NBA Live 2000. It was the last one that had fluid and intuitive gameplay. The physics were right, and the ease of pickup on the controls were right. I bought 2001, 2002, and 2003 out of pure habit, but i hated those games. Then i just said screw it, and tried ESPN Basketball in 2003, and I was a 2K convert ever since. But now 2K sucks too with all the micro transactions, so i dont even play that anymore. 🤷🏾♂️
EA’s exclusive license deal with the NFL killed all their games lol

I had the original Xbox version I loved the game but I remember gameplay being choppy as hell
The ball has no physics looks like a putty been hurled like a fast ball
This is why I'd rather avoid the NBA Live games and stick to the NBA 2K games instead. The same goes with avoiding Sony's NBA series.
I liked this game a lot actually. Not as much as 05.
Where to me 2K beat NBA Live is on Dynasty or GM mode, (NBA Live had way too many undersized players in the dynasty and didn't have multi team control dynasty, ) someone also on NBA Live a point guard for years would be the highest scorer which wasn't always realistic
Android po ba
For me, Nba Live 14 killed Live
Lmfao 😂 this is how I know not to listen to other people’s reviews of video games. This is my all time favorite sports game. When I was a kid I could’ve gave two fucks about other people’s opinion on my favorite game. Crazy

Hardest live ever 06
If we talk about great NBA Lives you have to separate last gen and next gen. Last gen was 06, 07 and on was basically the same game repackaged and next gen 06 thru 09 terrible animations stripped game features and basically they ported 06 from last gen with new textures. I think EA got very greedy and that came back to bite them. 2K6 really wasn’t that good of a game tbh but compared to NBA Live it’s makes it seem like it’s better when you compare animations features realism presentation. EA focuses on little stuff while 2K will make the whole game feel different but leave out little features that could push them to somewhere they couldn’t be touched like with 247 mode in 07 which was the first myplayer storyline in 2K history
Ps2 live games were good not 360 or ps3
this game was the real shit wtf are you on?
Bro you know nothing.
NBA live 2006 xbox original was the best nba game of all time the x box 360 and ps3 version of the game was not the same this new generation is trash in everything there video games are way too technical the new NBA games 2k 17-20 is like u have to hold the button 3.3 sec to make a shot 3.2 sec u miss 4.1 sec u miss . It's too technical too real it takes out the fun . U have grown men play8ng games in this generation..smh video games was for kids . And then u wounder why u have a bunch of immature grown ups they ruined gaming .. the best games was in the early 2000s after 2008 it went down hill and that's NBA games NFL games wwe games the only game that got better was UFC as far as sports NBA 2k doesn't even have a dunk contest that's like pathetic smh NBA live 05 and 06 was the greatest hands down
How the hell you say, you never played NBA Live 06 but give the video that title? Fuckin backwards. After Live 09, they went dead. Live 10 is the killer. NBA Live 09 is seriously top 5 basketball games of all time.
